Does a 100Mbps fiber optic connection from a telecom company require a router replacement
You don't need a special router, per se, but you do need one that can handle the speed fiber provides. If you're paying for gigabit fiber service, make sure your router supports at least gigabit Ethernet ports and dual-band or tri-band WiFi (like WiFi 5 or WiFi 6). Older routers could bottleneck. Instead of a modem, fiber connections require an Optical Network Terminal (ONT), a device that converts fiber signals into an Ethernet connection. Understanding compatibility, potential limitations, and when an upgrade is necessary will ensure you get the most out of your high-speed connection. Typically, the main carriers such as AT&T, Verizon, and CenturyLink allow their clients to have a fiber connection for free when signing up for fiber. While the ONT establishes your fiber connection, the router broadcasts that signal throughout your home via WiFi and provides wired ethernet ports for direct device connections. If you recently changed internet providers, you may have been informed that you need a new modem and router. This can leave many people wondering why.
